    Yup--Dajuan Wagner...he might have gone pro for this summer's draft if John Calipari didn't hire his freakin dad as an assistant coach. See--this is the type of crap the NCAA needs to look into--not whether or not Loren Woods' uncle bought him a snowcone when he was six...

    It's crap because the NCAA looks at any money you may have received from distant relatives or friends as a possible "bribe" but this was perfectly on the up and up? I don't think so. They bribed him into attending their school by giving his dad a good job.

    vj--I was just making a joke about how ridiculous the NCAA has gotten with its constant harrassment of players and some of the things they investigate. Look up "hyperbole" in the dictionary.

    oooh "hyperbole" bigword. I learned it last year in Language Arts. [​IMG] Our teacher kept reminding us it wasn't "hyper-bowl" haha
